WATCHING in boredom as her brother rummaged through their mothers old tapes, Heather perked up as Pacey burst through the door "The Commodore 64, the Lawn Dart, the Rock-N-Sockem Robots, Super Sugar Crisp, the Laserdisc, and now, back from the halls of obsolescence, the Betamax machine."
Dawson sighed in relief as Pacey plopped it on the bed "You, are a lifesaver."
Pacey smirked as he glanced to Heather who lounged against the headboard "Some would say literally, wouldn't they Little Leery?"
"Hero complex's are not cute, Witter." Heather smiled.
"Oh, but with my face, and this butt, it couldn't be anything else." Pacey retorted with a smug grin.
Dawson let out a sigh "Guys, focus please. I've got less than 48 hours to become an expert documentarian, and all my mom's newsreels are on beta."
"What?" Pacey mocked in amusement "Dawson Leery, eschewing the ephemeral world of make-believe for the gritty realities of real life?"
Heather joined in with a smile "Why it's a modern day miracle."
"Has the world spun off course?" Pacey continued "Was the Dalai Lama spotted at Black Angus?"
"More like my mother's been dangling a big fat carrot." Dawson rebuffed "The human interest story she was working on at the network fell out at the last minute."
Pacey glanced to Heather before raising an eyebrow at her brother "And?"
Dawson smiled "And, she says that if I can edit some raw footage by Friday morning, there's a chance she could whip it into shape and be on the air that night."
"Hey, the chance of a lifetime." Pacey plopped himself down beside Heather, folding his arms behind his head "That'll make a guy change his vision."
"Well, it's a temporary change." Dawson admitted "As soon as I get my foot in that proverbial door, I'll be right back in the magical land of make-believe."
The Witter boy shook his head "I don't know, Dawson. I mean, you got an amazing opportunity here to change your whole genre. Real-life stories are always more compelling than anything you could possibly dream up."
Heather nodded in agreement "That's why horror movies based on a true story are immediately superior."
"Real life is interesting, but it'll never be as dramatic as a well conceived narrative." Dawson denied.
